Weber State University (WSU) - Department of Automotive Technology - Transmission Lab. This episode demonstrates the fluid level checking procedure for the ZF 8HP45, 8HP70, and 8HP90 8-speed automatic transmissions used in select Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, RAM, HellCat, BMW, and other brands of vehicles.
Additional Information:
- Please turn off your traction control system before performing this procedure.
- ZF recommends safely tilting the vehicle towards the driver's side to add an additional 0.5 liters of fluid to compensate for the transmission cooler bypass valve issue discussed in this video.
- You must use the correct fluid in this transmission. The fluid must meet ZF-LIFEGUARDFLUID 8 (ZF No. S671 090 312) specifications. See https://aftermarket.zf.com/remotemedia/lol-lubricants/lol-en/lol-te-ml-11-en.pdf
As an automotive professor, I hear from a lot of people and students who have a negative reaction to this video and wonder why they took away the dipstick. Think about this: if a dipstick is so easy to use, you should be able to answer all of the following questions:
1. At what temperature is the "cold" mark accurate?
2. At what temperature is the "hot" mark accurate?
3. What temperature does the dipstick even refer to? Outside air? Coolant temperature? Transmission fluid temperature?
4. How will you measure that temperature?
5. If the fluid is within the cold mark area marks when it is "cold", is the fluid level okay?
6. if you live in a cold climate area like Alaska, is the "cold" level accurate there? What if you lived in a hot climate area like Central America, is their "cold" mark accurate?
If you cannot answer all of the previous questions, should you be using a dipstick?
All transmission fluid expands when heated, you must know what the fluid temperature is to check its fluid level properly. This is not a new concept. It began back in 1940 with the world's first mass produced automatic transmission, the Oldsmobile Hydra-Matic transmission.

Toyota, Ford, GM, BMW, Mercedes, etc. all do the same thing. This is not just a Chrysler thing. See my other three videos: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIn3FrDiB1lyLCTQJ8cctlzy5AlAhZFvz

So I've had to rebuild my transmission because it was leaking. This is part 1 of probably 3 videos that I will do on the subject. Checkout the other parts:
Part 2: https://youtu.be/Izltv3Ot_SA
Part 3: https://youtu.be/YvFfxZVZDes
There should be 5 documents related to rebuilding the transmission in this dropbox folder:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/g21ahp7i0fyuljw/AACC7cy4HKIvsd-5r7Sm675ma?dl=0
In that folder you will find the exploded diagrams for the valve body as well as instructions for the proper resistances for all the solenoids.
To see how to get the transmission in and out of the car, checkout my rear main seal videos:

I bought my rebuild kit from The California Transmission Supply Company, which was an authentic ZF kit and they had the best prices I could find:
http://www.thectsc.com/catalog/5hp19-3.html
Check out Transtar's website here:
http://www.transtar1.com/
In addition to simply buying absolutely everything you need from them, including rebuild kits and friction rings and the oil pump, etc, you can get every small part inside of the transmission as well, including the little plastic tubes for the oil pump. Be careful to save your o-rings because they only come in the rebuild kit, I believe. They were out of those as separate items.
Apparently FCP Euro has ZF oil pumps available so check them out at:

If you need to rebuild your torque converter and don't want to let them do it for whatever reason (maybe you're not near them and it will cost too much to ship to them and back), you can also buy a rebuilt one from Torco Enterprise, which is in the Los Angeles area, and they also sell on eBay:

Welcome to the ZF Education Center
In this video, we will cover the oil change intervals for 5HP transmissions --
Why to use genuine ZF LifeguardFluid and filters ---
And, provide basic instruction for changing the fluid in the ZF 5HP series transmission.
A lot of discussion has occurred on the topic of oil change intervals for ZF transmissions. It is important to adhere to your vehicle manufacturer's specified change interval and it is very important to use authorized fluids.
ZF LifeguardFluids are designed and tested to retain characteristics through normal lifetime operating conditions per the original equipment vehicle manufacturer's specifications. In instances of extreme driving conditions, special environmental considerations and driving factors, which place an increased load on the transmission, it is advisable to perform a drain and fill between 50.000 and 75.000 miles, or 8 years.
ZF recommends that fluid from the dealer or LifeguardFluid5 be used in all ZF 5HP19 RWD, FWD and AWD variants, 5HP24 transmissions with Green transmission tags. If you have a 5HP18 with a black transmission tag, use Dexron III. If it has a green tag use LifeguardFluid5. If you have a 5HP30 with a black transmission tag, use ATF LA-2634.
Please note that all wheel drive variants contain a different fluid for the differential.
Just like any other part in the transmission, LifeguardFluid5 was engineered specifically for the 5HP series of transmission. The fluid is the means by which all components in the transmission operate successfully: converter function, valve body function, clutch actuation, cooling ability, lubrication, particle suspension and filtration.
Using unapproved fluid may void any applicable warranty, it can lead to poor transmission function/shift quality, advanced wear of components and premature failure.
Do not second guess yourself; use genuine ZF fluid, filters and parts for assured performance.
We hope this has been useful in caring for your ZF equipped vehicle. Please check back to the ZF Education Center for more informative videos or visit www.zf.com/us/zfparts for more information.

• The world's first 9-speed automatic transmission (9HP) for passenger cars with front-transverse drive is one of the technical highlights of ZF. The potential reduction in fuel consumption and, in turn, CO2 emissions is one of the outstanding characteristics of the ZF automatic transmission: Fuel consumption is up to 16 percent lower when driving at a constant speed of 120 km/h than with today's commonplace 6-speed automatic transmissions with front-transverse installation.

Visit http://www.sandvik.coromant.com/automotive to find out more!
In this film we visit ZF transmissions in Brazil and listen to their experiences of partnership with Sandvik Coromant
ZF has approx. 2.500 employees in Brazil and produce transmissions for commercial vehicles, axles and transmissions for
agricultural machinery, marine transmissions and clutches, chassis components and steering systems for cars, trucks and commercial vehicles.

Once the first construction phase is completed, some 1,200 people will be working at the new ZF plant in Gray Court, producing around 800,000 transmissions a year. Learn more about the products in this Video.

ZF Friedrichshafen AG has opened a new plant for automatic passenger car transmissions in the U.S. Located in South Carolina, ZF Transmissions Gray Court, LLC is the manufacturing site of the 8-speed automatic transmission, which is already successful in the market, as well as the world's first 9-speed automatic transmission.

In the U.S. state of South Carolina, a new ZF production plant is taking shape on what is quite literally a greenfield site. As from summer 2013, the plant will be supplying ZF customers with high-efficiency 8-speed and 9-speed automatic transmissions for passenger cars. In this video we take a look at the brand new facility.

Here is the issue I'm having guys & gals. When using the paddles to shift, my car has a tendency to downshift when I'm trying to shift into a higher gear. The car is currently at my local Dodge dealer so stay tuned to see what happens next!

The ZF 9HP is a nine-speed automatic transmission, designed but not built by ZF Friedrichshafen AG subsidiary ZF Getriebe GmbH in Saarbrücken.[1] As a front-transverse transmission, it will debut in front-wheel drive and All-wheel drive vehicles. ZF touts the new design as being able to save an average of 16% in fuel usage over current 6-speed automatic transmissions. Tentative ratio spread is 9.84:1. Transmission will have a torque range between 280 and 480 Nm.
The 9HP is masterfully packaged and despite the extra three gear ratios is only 0.24 inches (6mm) longer and actually weighs 16.5 lbs (7.5kg) less than the outgoing six-speed transmission. The compact packaging is achieved by using a number of innovative design features: A new compact hydraulic vane-type pump, two patented dog clutches replacing bulkier conventional clutch packs, and a nested gear set.
Land Rover will demonstrate the world's first nine-speed automatic transmission for a passenger car at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show.

Remanufacturing worn-out vehicle components is increasingly important. Around the world, ZF plants like Nottingham in the UK are putting a wide variety of used parts through an industrial remanufacturing process, saving energy and conserving valuable raw materials.

The clock is ticking when Captain Butch Hewlett takes his fishing vessel, the Miss Barbara Ann out to sea during both stone crab and lobster seasons. The crew hauls 5-600 traps per day. Each trap sees the ZF ClearCommand controls shift the ZF Supershift2 transmission in and out of gear. Every time dependably engaging quickly and smoothly, with no surge. Shifting technology from ZF, easier on equipment, easier on the crew.
